JACK LIKES DONALD
“I’ll tell you what… I would take Trump over Hillary any day” Jack Russell
Blabbermouth — Former GREAT WHITE and current JACK RUSSELL’S GREAT WHITE singer Jack Russell has weighed in on underdog Donald Trump‘s stunning upset of Hillary Clinton in the U.S. presidential election, saying that he “would take” the real estate mogul “over Hillary any day.”
Trump shocked the political establishment and the world by becoming the 45th president in one of the biggest upsets in U.S. political history. He won with 306 electoral votes compared to 232 for Hillary Clinton. 270 were needed to win. Clinton, however, handily won the popular vote, despite losing the overall election.
Speaking to Seb Di Gatto for The Metal Gods Meltdown, Jack said about the U.S. election outcome (hear audio below): “You know, I’ll tell you what… I would take [Trump] over Hillary any day. To me, she’s just a crook. The fact that she hasn’t shown her face since then kind of tells you a lot. As far as being a president? I don’t know. I mean, I hope he does what he says he does. I think he has the right ideas in mind, but we’ll see. I just think now he’s getting blamed a lot in the press over here for stuff that Obama did. He’s only been in the office one day. It’s, like, hey, wait. Give the guy a chance. He hasn’t even had a chance to poop in the White House yet. You know what I mean? Give the guy a chance.”
He continued: “I’m not into politics, really, and I don’t vote. I can’t vote, ’cause I’m an ex-felon. But if I could, I would have voted for [Trump]. It wasn’t like we had a bunch of choices… He was the one… I’ve gotta had it to him, man. He pulled it off, and for a guy that’s not a politician… And that’s what I like about him — he’s not a politician; he’s a businessman. And this country is just basically a big business, a giant corporation, and it needs to be run like that. It doesn’t need to be run by politicians with nothing but their own agendas.”
Russell added: “The government has its hands in too much stuff, and it needs to be brought back to the people. Obamacare is the biggest piece of crap ever. I’m paying fifteen hundred dollars a month for insurance, just for me, and I call up and I go, ‘Yeah, I need this prescription. My doctor said it’s gonna fix me right up.’ ‘Oh, that’s not on your formula. You can’t have that.’ I’m, like, why is my insurance company telling me how to treat…? Why are they the ones that are responsible for treating me? It should be a doctor. But they say, ‘No, you can’t have that.’ I’m, like, ‘Then what am I paying all this money for?’ That’s a lot of money for one guy, you know, for insurance for a month. That’s a lot of money. It’s, like, dude, really? I can make a house payment with that, on a nice house.”
